I used to have SUPER thick bushy eyebrows all through early college but then I went pluck happy and now they are sparse and completely bare at the ends except for a few wiry ones that I have to pluck anyway because they are untameable and stick up every which angle.
I fill them in for now but it would be nice to actuallY HAVE hair. Any ideas?

Rogaine. It works on eyebrows too. Just apply with a q-tip.

Re: Any suggestions for....
Same thing happened to me. I spent $18 on an eyebrow shaping that made them SO thin, she swore I needed to do that to get 'shape' back in them then I would have to go to her once a month to get them thicker. BUT there was no way I could spend $18 on my EYEBROWS every month.
So, I went to my regular $6 eyebrow lady - she speaks the most English in the salon that I go to. What she does is clean up my eyebrows but she leaves a LOT underneath each eyebrow in the shape that I want them in. It has only been about three months and they are looking MUCH better. They are 'normal' right now but each time I get them done she leaves a little 'sliver' of hair underneath so eventually they will be as thick as I want them without having an awkward growing out period. So my eyebrows never look perfectly CLEAN but they look decent.
As for actually making them grow, maybe prenatal vitamins - I know they worked for the hair on my head!
ETA: I 'thought' that the bare parts would NEVER grow in but they actually are filling in now!

Really? A co-worker suggested this but i was afraid because Im latina and have dark hair and have problems enough with waxing my moustache and keeping the crazy chin hairs in check. I don';t want it to stimulate follicles anywhere but where it should be. No wolfies here.

Hmm I might try this first-so she shapes them but leaves the stray hairs beneath? and do you fill them in so it oesnt look scruffy? I'd prefer to do that but dont wnatto look unkept.
